Not necessarily! While ridge cap damage is common in our area due to weather exposure, it often signals wear but doesn't always require a full replacement. Our team will conduct a thorough inspection to assess the overall condition of your roof. We can typically repair localized ridge cap and flashing issues, but if the underlying structure is compromised, we'll recommend a replacement to ensure long-term protection for your home.

Great question. Roof flashing is the metal that seals the joints between your roof and other surfaces, like siding chimneys or walls. Corrosion here can let water seep behind your siding, causing rot and mold. When we perform siding services, we carefully inspect and address the adjacent flashing. Often, a siding repair or replacement provides the perfect opportunity to also replace corroded flashing, creating a complete, watertight seal that protects your home's structure from top to bottom.

Look for signs beyond just a few missing shingles. Frequent leaks, daylight through the roof boards, widespread curling or buckling shingles, and moss growth are strong indicators. Given our local issues with ridge cap and flashing damage, if you're experiencing persistent leaks near roof valleys or chimneys, the underlying issue may be extensive. We recommend a professional evaluation; if repairs are over 25% of the roof or the decking is damaged, a new roof installation is usually the more cost-effective and secure long-term solution.
